We walked 20 minutes uphill from our hotel near Oviedo mall and it was worth the effort to visit the museum. At the entrance we bought tickets for the 3:30 pm English language tour of the museum for 20,000 COP per person. While waiting for the tour, we walked around the beautiful garden and took photos. There was a wedding that day, so there were lots of flower decorations. The tour itself lasted 45 minutes or so and it was very interesting to learn the history of the castle. The guide was good. We were glad we visited the museum.

Beautiful gardens that one can walk around and enjoy. The guided tour also helped understand the history as well as the artwork inside the castle. Unfortunately no photo or video inside the castle but you can take pictures towards the outside on balconies or terraces.

Perfect for picnics! You need a reservation 1-2 days prior. They communicate via WhatsApp. They have a menu– basket and blanket already included. Souvenir shop was OK. We were the only ones having a picnic that day but many people were having a tour of the garden. They also turned off the fountain at noon and they were renovating. When we left, there was already a long queue of tourists waiting outside. We suggest going there in the morning to avoid the crowd and the heat.

Beautiful place! We took a tour with señor Andres who was fluent in English and made our tour through the castle a great bilingual experience! ?? If you want to visit the whole place including garden and castle museum, you pay 20.000cop/person which is worth it! Bags of any kind are not allowed on the castle museum tour. The garden itself is a beautiful picture spot!

No images are allowed to be taken inside, but the location is beautiful. We did have an English translator available which was a plus. We found Google Translator worked very well. Believe it or not they did pass on a student discount to me as I am working on a degree. Other language guidebooks are available for 10,000 pesos. The garden was not as spectacular as we were led to believe, but still quite nice. The story of the family is a sad one, but what elegance! This is not one of the main tourest spots, but it is unique enough to take a look.
